Product Description

The switch is capable of switching 40A/30A.
A heavy duty impact molded socket with 5 WIRES*White (common), Black (usually closed), and Yellow (usually
Contains 4 relays and 4 relay sockets in the same package.
A main contact is connected using UL-listed 6" wires with pigtail leads for safety.

Questions & Answers

Instead of hearing a click when the switch wire receives power, I hear the click immediately after connecting the relay to This seems normal to me, right?

Color codes seem to be mixed up for you. It is illogical that the colors are this way. My copy is in a new place. By the way. Current will not flow as fast through the wires as it does through

Is the wire gauge on the pigtails the same as the main wire?

is the way to go. The 30 pin on mine has been replaced with 12awg. This 16 ga is not large enough to handle the 40a it was designed

Can the relay # 86 be made to work with ma or amps? There is a maximum of 12 volts and 200 mA on my trigger wire. Do you think this will How will you handle the situation if not this relay?

My previous attempts to trigger the relay used a common 9v battery and on another occasion two AA battery packs. You don't have to do much to achieve this. As part of a DC experiment, I use these to demonstrate a coil relay. They work well on Jeeps as well.

How does the coil's resistance measure up?

The resistance I measured for 86 is 78 Ohms

Relay with an underrated power supply
5/5

The reason I am writing this review is to respond to the reviewers who gave it 1 "star" for the 16 gauge There were reviews that stated that wire was only rated for 10A (incorrectly). That's not right! Using 16 gauge wire for 60V or less, I've read that 10ft can handle 24A CONTINUOUS on 10ft of primary wire. Those who wrote the negative reviews need to understand Ohm's law BEFORE they lead shoppers astray!.

I've used it for a variety of automotive needs, and they are These relays have been used for everything from upgrading headlights to electric chokes to as starter relays on 84 Chevy trucks and I've never had an issue
5/5

The relays are well sealed, so you won't have to worry about water getting into the relay. There is wiring included in the package, however the connectors are not sealed, so water can still get into them. It is not suited to accept a continuous load of 30/40 amps. Furthermore, the wires that are used are perhaps a little on the small side for sustained high current. There is no need to remove the terminals from the connector, so heavier wires can still be installed and There is a bit of flimsiness to the mounting bracket, but the relay stays safe.

Perfect for the Center stop light project
4/5

These work well for the center stop light project. I also like the fact that they all slide or clip together. In my tailer, the brake light and turn signal are combined, and I didn't want the center brake light to illuminate when I pressed the brakes and one of the blinkers was on. With these relays and a couple of diodes, I achieved what I was looking for. Granted, the 30A carry capacity of the relay points is a bit much for the LED stop beacon. When I experience other earlier life (MTBF) failures due to the way I have used the machine, I'll let you know.

9 volts DC is all that is needed to energize the coil
3/5

This build appears to be solid. However, it is important to realize that the coil is powered by 9V DC input only, which means you'll need a booster module to connect to a low voltage supply to make it Essentially, the electromagnet will only close the connection when it is at a minimum of 9v, as opposed to the advertised 5v voltage.

One of the relays on my tractor had gone bad, so I had to replace it
5/5

As a result, I had to install an aftermarket wiring harness in order to run a rear light bar and I failed to provide a way to mount the relay. I have pigtail harnesses extra and am thus able to relay outfits for my new relays, and the new relays work perfectly To activate the pod lights I have in the corners, click on the "Trigger" button.

The overall quality of the product is good
4/5

It was a good price, and the documentation was very good. A potential problem relates to the gauge wire used on the sockets, as I am unsure they could withstand 40 amps, let alone 30 The 10 amps I got are fine with me, because I knew what I was getting into. I used to crimp my own connectors to my wiring if I needed higher amps, so I do not need to use their.

In this case, I was really impressed with the quality of the product, its packaging, and the supporting materials included in the package
5/5

I rarely write product reviews, but in this case, I was really impressed. As you know, many manufacturers are in the same situation. There are no installation instructions or information on how to install the product, so they can avoid any liability for its The packaging box was neat and compact, and the shipping was very fast. recommend this product because of the great value it has and the superior quality it provides.

Despite the 30/40 amp relays, only 16 gauge wire leads are supplied
3/5

It's kind of annoying that the relays are rated for 30 / 40 amps, but they only come with 16 gauge wire leads for the loads. It is recommended that you use a minimum of 10 gauge wire if something is drawing 30 amps or more. Therefore, I would say that these smaller diameter leads would kind of compromise the use that they could have for 30 or 40 amp loads.
